Robert Peyton asks GQ food writer
Alan Richman (left) about the
spanking he received from Times-Picayune food critic
Brett Anderson. "I'm pretty immune to negative comments," says Richman. "I ordinarily wouldn’t care what’s said about me in the Times-Picayune, a third-rate newspaper that rose to the occasion after Katrina and has subsequently returned to being a third-rate newspaper. But the article hit me hard, not simply because it was unethical and hypocritical but also because it was a written by a person I had considered a colleague. He didn’t attack my story. He attacked me. I don’t care how tough you are, and I’m pretty tough journalistically, that hurts." ||
